Purpose: To establish an approximate life expectancy for E.Coli in the sortostat under chemostatic operation.
Experimental Conditions
- Strain: MC4100
- Device: I6032
- Media: Supplemented M9 + Amp
- Temp: 37C
Chemostat Settings
- There are no sorts in this run.
- Dilution Rate: .69/hr
- Clean Chemostat Period: 1.45hr
- Minimum Pumping Time: 30s
- Dead Time per Screen: 20s
- Dead Time per Sort: 47s
- Pump Cycle Period: 400ms
- Actual Cleaning Period: 1.32hr
- Sorting Perdiod: 4.95
- Feeder Fill: 10s
- Wash: 10s
- Clean: 15s
- Pressurize: 5s
- Fluid Pressure: 4.47 psi
- Push-UP: 13.91 psi
- Push-DOWN: 19.7 psi
Results
Catastrophic Failure! Airline blew off actuator and all tank pressure was lost.
